1. Daniel

   Letra

   Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes They say Spain is pretty though I've never been Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen Oh and he should know, he's been there enough Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much Daniel my brother you are older than me Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal Your eyes have died but you see more than I Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
2. Teacher I Need You
3. Elderberry Wine

   Letra

   There's a fly in the window A dog in the yard And a year since I saw you There's a trunk in the corner I keep all my letters My bills and demands I keep too Well I can't help thinking About the times You were a wife of mine You aimed to please me Cooked black-eyed peas-me Made elderberry wine Drunk all the time Feeling fine on elderberry wine Those were the days We'd lay in the haze Forget depressive times How can I ever get it together Without a wife in line To pick the crop and get me hot On elderberry wine Round a tree in the summer A fire in the fall Flat out when they couldn't stand The bottle went round Like a woman down south Passed on from hand to hand
4. Blues For My Baby And Me

   Letra

   Your old man got mad when I told him we were leaving He cursed and he raged and he swore at the ceiling He called you his child, said, "Honey get wise to his game He'll get you in trouble, I know it, those bums are all the same" There's a Greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus And it's all over now, don't you worry no more Gonna go west to the sea The Greyhound is swaying and the radio's playing Some blues for baby and me And the highway looks like it never did Lord, it looks so sweet and so free And I can't forget that trip to the west Singing blues for baby and me Saw your hands trembling, your eyes opened in surprise It's ninety in the shade, babe, and there ain't a cloud in the sky I called you my child, said, "Honey, now this is our game There's two of us to play it and I'm happy to be home again" There's a Greyhound outside in the lane, it's waiting for us So tell him goodbye, we gotta go west on that bus And it's all over now, don't you worry no more We're gonna go west to the sea The Greyhound is swaying and the radio's playing Some blues for baby and me And the highway looks like it never did Lord, it looks so sweet and so free And I can't forget that trip to the west Singing blues for baby and me And it's all over now, don't you worry no more We're gonna go west to the sea The Greyhound is swaying and the radio's playing Some blues for baby and me And the highway looks like it never did Lord, it looks so sweet and so free And I can't forget that trip to the west Singing blues for baby and me
5. Midnight Creeper
6. Have Mercy On The Criminal

   Letra

   Have you heard the dogs at night Somewhere on the hill Chasing some poor criminal And I guess they're out to kill Oh there must be shackles on his feet And mother in his eyes Stumbling through the devil-dark With the hound pack in full cry Have mercy on the criminal Who is running from the law Are you blind to the winds of change Don't you hear him any more Praying Lord you got to help me I am never gonna sin again Just take these chains from around my legs Sweet Jesus I'll be your friend Now have you ever seen the white teeth gleam While you lie on a cold damp ground You're taking in the face of a rifle butt While the wardens hold you down And you've never seen a friend in years Oh it turns your heart to stone You jump the walls and the dogs run free And the grave's gonna be your home
7. I'm Gonna Be A Teenage Idol
8. Texan Love Song
9. Crocodile Rock

   Letra

   I remember when rock was young, me and Suzie had so much fun Holding hands and skimming stones Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own But the biggest kick I ever got was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock While the other kids were Rocking 'Round The Clock, we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock Well, Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight But the years went by and the rock just died Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy Long nights crying by the record machine Dreaming of the Chevy and my old blue jeans But they'll never kill the thrills we've got burning up to the Crocodile Rock Learning fast as the weeks went past We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last Well, Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight I remember when rock was young, me and Suzie had so much fun Holding hands and skimming stones Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own But the biggest kick I ever got was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock While the other kids were Rocking 'Round The Clock, we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock Well, Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will Oh lawdy mama, those Friday nights when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
10. High Flying Bird

    Letra

    You wore a little cross of gold around your neck I saw it as you flew between my reason Like a raven in the night time when you left I wear a chain upon my wrist that bears no name You touched it and you wore it And you kept it in your pillow all the same My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms I thought myself her keeper She thought I meant her harm She thought I was the archer A weather man of words But I could never shoot down My high-flying bird The white walls of your dressing room are stained in scarlet red You bled upon the cold stone like a young man In the foreign field of death Wouldn't it be wonderful is all I heard you say You never closed your eyes at night and learned to love daylight Instead you moved away
